Have you participated in subject-specific Olympiads?

I participated in the "Lomonosov" math competition last year (though we stormed in there as a crowd of 7 people, sat together and solved everything together :D One guy started fooling around - he got kicked out...). Then we went to a math regatta... But we also had a lot of fun - we sat there and organized Tournaments in dots :rolleyes: As a result, out of 100 possible points, I think I got 1 (!) for the last problem of the last round :D and that was it... We were in second-to-last place)) Though we sat there covering up our school number so no one could see... Since my acquaintances from other schools were there... :rolleyes: And then, while waiting for the results, we wrote a whole list of reasons that prevented us from solving the problems... I remember that "poor environment," "too bright spring sun," and so on were on that list. Oh, how dissatisfied our math teacher who took us there was with us... :smile10:
